| | | What is BioWare's finest achievement? With Mass Effect now available and every future title having EA's paws on it, I think it's a good time to judge all of the games BioWare has released to date.
So... which title (and subsequent expansion packs) represents their finest achievement? |

It's probably all part of another sinister plot related to world domination.
Seriously though,
I don't think I've ever voted in a poll here where the choice was so immediately obvious!

I can't say I really expect Shattered Steel or MDK 2 to get many votes, but Neverwinter Nights, Star Wars: KotOR, Jade Empire, and Mass Effect all have merits that might warrant a number of votes from their respective fanbases. |

BG2 did so many things right. It's just a shame Bioware chose to coast on their rep after it, turning in on-time cookie-cutter successes that never innovated. Quote:

See? There's an intelligent person who knows the right question to ask.

| | | Same here. Though I am planning to play it in the near future if Hellgate disagrees with me and provided I can locate the game in a store.

| | Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, even though I dislike that d20 system (not to mention I enjoy Republic Commando more than this game, to be honest  ). Tried playing Neverwinter Nights before but didn't like it. Find Jade Empire to be mundane after playing it for a few hours.

Actual I like them all.
